Lyrics
This song was written by Sting many years ago
It's called, "Roxanne"
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night
Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
Oh, you don't have to-
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
I loved you since I knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have to tell you just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy
I know my mind is made up
So put away your makeup
I told you once, I won't tell you again
It's a bad way
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
Don't you know? You don't have to-
Baby, don't put it on
Oh, no, no, no, oh, no, no, no, no, no
Baby, don't put it on
Baby, don't put it on
No, no, no, no
Baby, don't put it on
No, no, no, no
